“Dalby Meadows comprises an area of gently rolling uplands between 900 and 1100 metres elevation bordered to the north and south by Bromley and Lamont creeks respectively. The headwaters of Stevenson and Tracey creeks lie to the east and mountainous terrain rises steeply to the west. The meadows are drained by Dalby Creek, a southward-flowing tributary of Lamont Creek, some 4.7 kilometres long. The meadows are, in part, underlain by a Quaternary interglacial channel hidden by a thin mantle of overburden. Additional work defined a gold and platinum-bearing boulder channel with a pay thickness of 3 to 6 metres and a minimum width of 30 metres, lying beneath 3 to 6 metres of sandy silt. The stream and boulder gravels of the channel contain 0.13 to 0.65 gram of gold and about 0.013 gram of platinum per cubic metre. Most of the gold occurs in coarse nuggets. Electron microprobe studies indicate the gold nuggets consist of about 90 per cent gold, while the platinum particles comprise 80 per cent platinum and 8 per cent iridium. Drilling has outlined in excess of 820,000 cubic metres of gravel grading 0.091 to 0.561 gram of gold equivalent for combined gold and platinum (Assessment Report 17531, page 6).”

The Dalby Meadow’s occurrence is one of 4 developed platinum prospects listed in the province’s Minfile database.

In 2010, a Notice of Work (currently valid to Dec. 31st 2011) was approved by EMPR for mining from 5 test pit areas on the property with heavy equipment. A reclamation bond is in place. A copy of the Notice of Work with a mining plan and related documents is available on request. A new owner may wish to conduct the work programs herein or submit a revised plan.
